Abstract: A driver monitoring (DM) computing device for monitoring driving behavior of a driver in real-time is provided. The DM computing device detects a user computer device associated with a driver inside the vehicle. The DM computing device collects state data of the user computer device. The state data includes data as to a state of the user computer device during a currently occurring trip. The DM computing device collects vehicle operation data of the vehicle while the driver and the user computer device are inside the vehicle. The DM computing device compares the collected vehicle operation data and the state data of the user computer device to determine whether the user computer device was activated during the currently occurring trip. The DM computing device causes a driving reward to be applied to an account associated with the driver for inactivity of the user computer device during the currently occurring trip.

Abstract: A vehicle dispatch device is configured to dispatch a vehicle having an autonomous driving function to a user, the device includes: a search unit configured to search for a first alternative moving object when the vehicle cannot continue the autonomous driving to the destination during the autonomous driving of the vehicle on which the user is boarded, the first alternative moving object to which the user can transfer at a boarding position which is within a predetermined distance from a position on a route to an end position of the autonomous driving of the vehicle, within a predetermined time from alighting from the vehicle; and a grant unit configured to grant a reward to the user when the first alternative moving object does not exist.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, transmitting a signal during a media presentation, wherein the signal is transmitted prior to an advertising timeslot during the media presentation, receiving a first indication that the signal is detected by a user device, and receiving a second indication of a status of the user device, wherein the status coincides with when the user device detects the signal. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method, operating at a processing system including a processor, can include receiving a reply message from a communication device responsive to a query signal and including audio information collected at a presentation area, determining consumer presence information at the presentation area according to the audio information collected at the presentation area, determining a probability of a consumer advertising experience according to the consumer presence information, selecting first advertising media from a set of advertising media according to the probability of consumer advertising engagement, and presenting the first advertising media to the presentation area via the presentation system. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for processing an electronic coupon link are provided. One of the methods includes: receiving, by a server, an electronic coupon link from a first user terminal; determining a first attribute of the electronic coupon link according to the electronic coupon link; determining, according to the first attribute, a storage pool corresponding to the first attribute from a plurality of storage pools; and storing the electronic coupon link in the storage pool corresponding to the first attribute, for a second user terminal to obtain the electronic coupon link in the storage pool. The storage pool may store one or more electronic coupon links.

Abstract: The systems and methods described herein disclose providing compensation for data transmission during a refill event. As described here, a vehicle collects operation data sets during movement in the vehicular environment. Vehicles can then transfer one or more of the operation data sets during the refill of the collecting vehicle. Thus, operator can determine the desirability and value of trading the upload time for compensation. The systems and methods can include detecting a refill event for a collecting vehicle. A data analysis can then be received for one or more operation data sets produced by the collecting vehicle. A data value can then be determined from the data analysis, with the operator determining transfer one or more operation data sets from the collecting vehicle during the refill event. Once received, compensation can be provided to the collecting vehicle for the received operation data sets based on the data value.
